War in Iraq

Why are we at war? Are we fighting for oil, gas, or land? I don't know actually the reason why. I do know that too many lives are being lost. Destruction and death is what these soldiers and Iraqi's see everyday. It is a very sad situation we are in now. Young soldiers and civilians are dying and getting maimed. I pray for a end to this travesty soon. Bring our soldiers home and stop the fighting. Iraq has seemed to be at their own war for years. Let them deal with their own mess of oil and gas. Our soldiers need to come on home and never see the chaos in Iraq again.
